That patch actually removes the whole 'legacy_special_mapping_vmops'
that my one-liner then removed the '.close' field from, so no - my
one-liner just becomes a non-issue.

NOTE! That patch of mine *will* conflict with Michael's patch series,
since my patch to remove legacy_special_mapping_vmops was done on top
of my current -git tree. But it should be an obvious conflict, in that
it just means that the addition of .close never happens.
